Welcome to the NRCS
West Central Glaciated Soil Survey Region web site.
 |
MLRAs are geographically
associated land resource units that share a common land use, elevation and topography,
climate, water, soils, and vegetation. There are 208 of them in the
U.S. and the Caribbean Area,
ranging in size from 110 to 110,000 square miles. Sixteen of those
are assigned to the MLRA Soil Survey Region 10 Office.

This is the approach to soil survey adopted by
NRCS in October 1995.
The major change with this approach is that the soil survey area is now a
geographic area with naturally occurring boundaries, rather than area with
artificial boundaries (counties).
